Original brochure. Etat : Sehr gut. 168 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Zustand: Im einwandfreien Zustand. / Condition: In perfect condition. - Content: Historical circumstances and an intellectual legacy characterize the context in which Aristotle wrote. This chapter suggests Aristotle's responses to both by portraying him more as a critic than as a partisan. His critical analysis of things political and intellectual emanates from a perspective that sees a necessary and objective linkage between politics and ethics. Political science is not value-neutral and descriptive, but oriented towards the good and thus prescriptive; the human tool of analysis or of science, namely reason, necessarily seeks the good for man, which includes justice. The capacity of reason, an attribute natural to man, to apprehend what is just indicates a natural, objective basis of justice. This chapter discusses Aristotle's concept of natural justice and suggests that it contributes to the unity of Aristotle's corpus. Aristotle was born in the year 384 BC in north-eastern Greece in Stagira, a coastal city located on the eastern Chalcidice peninsula, then part of Macedonia. Educated by the philosopher Plato at the Athens Academy, Aristotle himself became a teacher and writer. While in his thirties, he taught throughout the islands of Greece and, at the age of 41, at the request of King Philip II, became tutor to Philip's 13-year-old son, the future King of Macedonia Alexander the Great. (Likewise Philip's father, King Amyntas, had enlisted Aristotle's father, a physician by the name of Nicomachus, into his court.) In 335 BC, when Aristotle was 49 years old, he returned to Athens and founded his own school, the Lyceum. Because of his habit of walking with his students while teaching, his pedagogy became known as 'Peripatetic'. Some of Aristotle's written works appear to be lecture notes, but the total volume, scope and depth of his output indicate as much dedication to posterity as to his living students. In the Politics, Aristotle sets out to discover the best form that the state can take. Similar to his mentor Plato, Aristotle considers the form that will produce justice and cultivate the highest human potential. Taking a more empirical approach, however, Aristotle examines the constitution of existing states and draws on specific case studies to address common political problems and conflicts. In doing so he created the first political science.
